When Sayaka started speaking, Techi leaned against the podium to listen. Again and again, the brunette nodded in agreement, but when Sayaka announced her graduation, she froze. “...” She didn’t move when Sayaka sat down either. Sure, she was supposed to read the next name, but the surprise took her a bit too fast. Her first thought was with her generation. From six girls they were supposed to suddenly only be four anymore?! She couldn’t imagine that. “Techi, the next name.” Someone said to her via the earpiece. She didn’t react. Her second thought was with Team K. They had just been reshuffled... actually not, it has been almost half a year! It certainly hadn’t felt like one. Techi knew that they’d pull through, but it still sounded strange. “Techi-San? Is she alright?” Elise wondered. She wasn’t speaking loud enough for the brunette to hear her, but she certainly was wondering. Her third thought was with Ikuchan in particular. Earlier this year, she had told the other members about her intention to graduate from AKB0048 due to her studies. She wouldn’t until much later in the year; hence the fans not knowing yet, but speculations were ever present. Her work schedule was decreasing too; her role in Magi believed to be cut shorter. Techi knew that she had intended to explain her intentions on this evening, but her health didn’t permit it. She also knew vaguely when she would leave, but once again, Techi wondered how and when Sayaka would do the same. “Techi, the next letter.” “... What.” was the brunette’s answer. “Are you kidding me, Sayaka?” Fortunately those words were not spoken into the mic. “Right. The next placement...” She now spoke into the mic. “Gimme a sec.”
